Caradrina flavirena Guenée, 1852

Notes

Thirty-nine specimens were collected from five localities in Central High Atlas: Azgour, Tamal, Ighalene, Timzilite and Ait Ouagestite. We provide illustrations of an adult female (Fig. 13 a ) and a male genitalia (Fig. 13 b ). The species has previously been mentioned from the Atlantic plains and low mountains, from the Middle Atlas as well as the Tell Atlas, but no records are known from the High Atlas ( Rungs 1981).
